Geometry of Conformal Manifolds and the Inversion Formula
Bruno Balthazar, Clay Cordova
Families of conformal field theories are naturally endowed with a Riemannian geometry which is locally encoded by correlation functions of exactly marginal operators. We show that…
On Small Black Holes in String Theory
Bruno Balthazar, Jinwei Chu, David Kutasov
We discuss the worldsheet sigma-model whose target space is the dimensional Euclidean Schwarzschild black hole. We argue that in the limit where the Hawking temperature of th…
D-instanton Effects in Type IIB String Theory
Nathan B. Agmon, Bruno Balthazar, Minjae Cho +2
We study D-instanton contributions to supergraviton scattering amplitudes in the ten-dimensional type IIB superstring theory beyond the leading non-perturbative order. In particula…
Winding Tachyons and Stringy Black Holes
Bruno Balthazar, Jinwei Chu, David Kutasov
We study string theory on . For applications to thermodynamics, the circumference of the is the inverse temperature, . We show th…
The S-Matrix of 2D Type 0B String Theory Part 2: D-Instanton Effects
Bruno Balthazar, Victor A. Rodriguez, Xi Yin
We study the effect of D-instantons on closed string scattering amplitudes in the two-dimensional type 0B string theory from the worldsheet perspective. We find that the contributi…
The S-Matrix of 2D Type 0B String Theory Part 1: Perturbation Theory Revisited
Bruno Balthazar, Victor A. Rodriguez, Xi Yin
We study the perturbative S-matrix of closed strings in the two-dimensional type 0B string theory from the worldsheet perspective, by directly integrating correlation functions of…
